Surely the Wraith have power sources even though their ships are partly biological, if we could down enough wraith darts we could incorporate their power systems into Atlantis therefore providing slightly more power to the city. What would be quite cool is just installing the asgard teleportation device and have it linked to the life signs detector so that when a Wraith is detected in Atlantis then the teleporter sends it into the atmosphere. Simple way od dealing with them easily. Or straight into the ocean. Either way they probably die unless they happen to have just fed upon a few hundred people so they then are invincible.

The only way to power Atlantis properly is to use a ZPM - so we may as well concentrate on finding moregumboYaYa: you are all beautiful, your words and openness are what make that shine. don't forget how much talent love and beauty you all have. so for now, peace love love love more love and happy, and thank you, thank you, thank you

Atlantis needs ZPMs but Earth also needs all the knowledge they can handle so knowing how the Wraith power a ten thousand + year old ship would be nice... then again finding out how the Ancients do the same would be even better.

I doubt they got many - the things powered by ZPM's were the most fortifiedgumboYaYa: you are all beautiful, your words and openness are what make that shine. don't forget how much talent love and beauty you all have. so for now, peace love love love more love and happy, and thank you, thank you, thank you

Given their level of tech, I doubt they were integrating ZPMs into their system unless they've managed to use them as a model for creating their own power systems. My reasoning is that given the number of ships and the amount of them in hibernation they'd have:
1.) needed to replace the ZPMs in which case they'd have to know how to build one, making capturing them unnecessary.
2.) If they can't build them then wiping out those who can was a bad move and they'd be as hungry for a power replacement as they are food.
3.) They had ships before the war with the ancients so their power systems must have been at least half decent and fully integrated.
4.) If they have ZPMs they shouldn't be so slow in getting around and as a result have no problems getting to the Milky Way
